Talk:Correspondent inference theory

Grammar
''The covariation model is use with in this, more specifically that impact the degree in which you attribute behavior to the person as on the contrast to the situation. These factors are; does the person have a choice in the partaking in the action, is their behavior expected by their social role, and is their behavior consequence of their normal behavior? ''

I have no idea what this is trying to say so I can´t fix the grammar, could someone give it a go?

Logic
1)The fewer effects the possible choices have in common, the more confident one can be in inferring a correspondent disposition. 2)The fewer the non-common effects, the more certain the attribution of intent.

"effects the possible choices have in common" is not the same as "non-common effects" but is a 'correspondent disposition' the same as an 'attribution of intent'? My logic tells me it is.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 182.54.167.124 (talk) 11:16, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

I have the same problem. I think the two quotes tell exactly the opposite. 1) more common => less confident 2) more common => more confident

Or in other words: 1) more non-common => more confident 2) more non-common => less confident

Which one is true? Thanks in advance, Richard (hope it was right to add my post as edit of this post; sorry if bad english, I am from Germany, folks) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.189.10.29 (talk) 20:23, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

"fewer effects the possible choices have in common" is different from "fewer the non-common effects". They are not opposites because it is possible to independently change the quantity of each. There is no inverse correspondence between the two statements. In the same way, "more confident one can be in inferring a correspondent disposition" is different from (but not opposite to) "more certain the attribution of intent". The original author would not have been trying to suggest correspondence between the two pairs of statements. But instead would be presenting two distinct relationships. 82.40.220.46 (talk) 18:00, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
